Bogiaisso [Bo-gia-ìsso] in Chioggia dialect means 'vortex, the point where water bubbles up'.
Since 2022, during the fishing moratorium, Bogiaisso has been a moment to look in the mirror and discover ourselves reflected in sensibilities, lands and waters both near and far, thanks to a selection of video works in profound dialogue with local life experience.
New in 2026
The fifth edition of the Bogiaisso festival will rediscover the most appreciated international video works from previous editions, alongside others never before screened in Chioggia.
Two artists in residence — Ginevra Collini and Valerie Tameu — are already learning from the Chioggia fishing community and imagining participatory restitutions to which you will all be invited to contribute.
The 2026 selection is curated by the scientific committee, which each year helps generate vital points of connection between the reality of Chioggia and other water-bound communities around the world. Directed by Niccolò Moronato, this year's committee involves Cairo Clarke, Camilla Zennaro, Zöe De Luca Legge, Ilaria Conti, Giulia Menegale, Orsola Vannocci Bonsi and Lele Buonerba.
